Cuisine..Indian

Modern day heroes
It has been a week since the US warship USS Nimitz left the shores of Chennai but I am still disturbed. No, I am not thinking about the alleged nuclear emission or the shameful way with which India prostrated and still prostrates in front of the US. I am only thinking about what the sailors did in Chennai. What disturbed me the most was the hysteri...  more...

That's enough to feed three people for a day - 7,500 easy-to-digest, relatively nutritious, and potentially tasty calories. All for less than 0.7 percent of a...  more...
